In this paper we present an improved Active Shape Model (ASM) for facial features extraction. The original ASM developed by Cootes et al. [1] suffers from factors such as, poor mod...

We present an image-based approach to infer 3D structure parameters using a probabilistic "shape+structure" model. The 3D shape of an object class is represented by sets...

Vertebra shape can effectively describe various pathologies found in spine x-ray images. There are some critical regions on the shape contour which help determine whether the shap...

The flow complex is a geometric structure, similar to the Delaunay tessellation, to organize a set of (weighted) points in Rk. Flow shapes are topological spaces corresponding to ...

Abstract. We propose a method for object category localization by partially matching edge contours to a single shape prototype of the category. Previous work in this area either re...
